[Thrive General] Banecn:
I've had the Thrive since about 2 days before the official launch and have been extremely happy with it. I think it has gotten even better over the last 2 weeks as root has already been achieved.

This is my first tablet, so I wouldn't feel right about doing any kind of in depth comparison with any other tablet, but I will say that from all the research I did before choosing the Thrive is that if you want svelte and sexiness this isn't the tab for you. If what you are after is some added functionality (i.e. the full array of ports and full size SD card slot) and don't mind a little extra chunkiness then it is a great tablet.
[Thrive General] ka9cql:
Love/Hate Relationship

LOVES:

Solid grip due to rubberized and ribbed backing

Nice form factor

Toshiba as a Mfr

Excellent battery life

HATES:

On/off button - very hard to find the thing!

Volume control sucks - can't use it without tipping tablet and staring directly at it with a light shining on it. Huge fail!!

Kapersky antivirus embedded in ROM - can't turn it off, and it slows the dual-core tablet to a crawl. Leaving Kapersky running makes my BRAND NEW Thrive less responsive than my VERY OLD, T-Mobile G1!!!

Might be adjustable, but HDMI screen output extends past edge of my hi-def TV

Despite this, I do like it. Wish I had done more research though... would have lowered my expectations. Tablets have not had time to mature yet. Galaxy is too expensive, Moto too "flashy" (rather than useful), Acer too klunky, Thrive needs tweaking. Nada ready to kill iPad yet, I'm afraid... :mad:
[Thrive General] Hitch_Itch:
Sorry to disagree but I think the worst android tablet is way better then any I pad. My wife has the dam thing and I cant stand it, other then a fluid screen transition its about worthless, copy/paste never works, no flash for videos, no wifi widget available, no weather widget, apps suck, mostly because he is a control freak.

oops, sorry for the I pad rant, bad subject for me.

I thought it was like a $10 difference between the Samsung 10.1 and the Thrive at Bestbuy

Hitch

O Yea I forgot to add to my list of Dislikes- " THE THRIVE'S CAMERA SUX SO SO BAD" the Samsung G Tab ran all over it
[Thrive General] iherbivore:
I am happy with my Thrive. I would not exchange it for anything currently.

The easy to hold aspect is dear to me.

The screen might look worse than the gtab side by side, but I don't see anything wrong with it myself.

I seldom use the speakers, I generally use headphones.

So from my perspective in an exchange I would be giving up an easy to hold tablet that I can easily hookup to my monitor and usb mouse/keyboard.
[Thrive General] teh roxxorz:
i am a tech guy majoring in engineering and this tanlet beats the others by functionality. Its isnt as sexy as others been thin and all, but it is sturdy, removable battery makes it worth it. I chose the thrive over the galaxy tab for the sheer functnality.
[Thrive General] t_sandat8:
very happy

yes very happy with the thrive. This is my 4th tablet in 7 months i been testing them out was totally new to android.

I had the cruze105 and 301, the coby 7", the elocity a7, enspert identy tab, and now the thrive.

Loving it but one major gripe......

awesome that the thrive has a full size sd card Just but it need to be behind a covered port. I have lost a sd card. I must have bumped the card while I was out and round with it and the card ejected. i dont have a case for it yet but even if i had the sd card does not fully insert.

Does anyone have problems with there sd cards rebooting because you bump card while its inside port? or while thrive is in a case
[Thrive General] Hitch_Itch:
I don't know I didn't get a sd card, sorry I cant help

HItch
[Thrive General] Hitch_Itch:
Well I have decided to keep the Thrive and Not go back to the Samsung gtab, even tho the gtab's latest update skin looks pretty cool

Since Im keeping it I have ordered a screen protector, neoprene sleeve, green back cover and stylus pen.

Now if we could get a custom rom to rid us of the OS lag life would be great
[Thrive General] lichbane:
I'm currently in two minds right now.

I love the Full SD, Full USB, and I can see the potential of the AT100 ("Thrive" is already trademarked here in Australia), but the Aussie version is still stuck on version 3.0.1 of the OS. That version of the software is buggy as all hell! Random crashes, reboots and (of cause) the SOD abound.

While Toshiba have a good reputation for support, the fact that it's taken so long to being us into line with the rest of the world ... and every time we ask we get "very soon"; over a month of "very soon" is getting infuriating.
[Thrive General] dalepl:
Go here and get a CWM update that will update you to a full rooted 3.1 version of the OS: http://www.thriveforums.org/forum/toshiba-thrive-development/1844-thrive-rooted-cw-restore-3-1-01-5-0029-image.html
[Thrive General] lichbane:
Thanks for that!

Just a question though ... there should be no issues putting this on the 3.0.1 tablet? There are no other supporting files that will get upset? (I'm not very experienced with Android and don't want to brick the device).
[Thrive General] dalepl:
No, it should be no issue. Just remember to do a backup with CWM recovery before flashing the update. That way if it goes bad, you will be able to restore to stock.
[Thrive General] williambs:
SD Card Issue

Love my Thrive 16gb, I am around iPad's and not impressed at all. I am a Tech Coordinator and would prefer the android in the exchange enviorment with the Google Apps.

No problems with my sd card ejecting with or without case.

Hope you get a case soon...saw that someone has one for sale in the forum.
[Thrive General] Peahnuts:
Loving my Toshiba, personally don't think theres THAT much of a difference between the screen on this and the other tabs, and if there is it really doesn't bug me because I think the screen is perfectly fine. The full sized USB port is really convenient for transferring files as well, because I use a Mac and it doesn't have an SD card slot and the Bluetooth manager keeps freezing.

Only real gripe is the bloody 3.1 update. It was originally due for July in Aus, then they said another week, and now they're saying another 2 - 4 weeks. So yeah, but besides that liking this thing lol.
[Thrive General] fox3x:
love my thrive !

I love this Tablet ! It works amazing . Great tablet very very fast . zero problems with it . im in love,...lol
[General Questions and Answers] willi0201:
I was surfing on the internet on my HTC Desire S, trying to look for some other app store, with plants vs. zombies, that wasent amazon app store, because of my location not being in the states. Then i found this app store called "AppStoreHQ".

Does anyone know if this one's safe? Can i download plants vs. zombies from there, without being infected with virus, and can you download apps from appstorehq, outside of USA?

Anyone knows what colour should be the water damage indicators on our Legends?

I'm gonna send mine in for warranty, cuz my digitizer is dead (Screen not reacting to touch) and just wanna check if those stickers are ok.

I poured a little bit of Cola on it in February so its crucial :P

I've check mine, and they're snow white, both the battery and phone.
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stemnin:
Exactly the same, mine works fine though.

Still considering sending it for warranty.

That's the second time the digitizer went dead for a couple of hours :S
[Gen8 Android Development] FrEcP:
Hi,

Ii bought my Archos device knowing it is a great developer device - anyway im not into porting linux,...

As there are many mobile OSes and i really want a "normal" linux on my 101 too, I thought about gathering all Informations about the different OSes so it's easier to choose one :D

Anyway this is what i know for now (will just include latest versions - unless there are different develoment stages):

Android:

Froyo (2.2 ...)

Archos Stock 2.4.82 - (changes)

UrukDroid (download, server-link, homepage, wiki, development, bugs, TV, 3G)

Urukdroid 1.1RC1 (based on FW 2.3.38) - 1.1RC2 update - 1.1RC3 kernel

develoment stopped

Cinema-Plugin enabled

UrukDroid 1.6 (based on FW 2.4.81, Android 2.2.1), Changelog

OC module included

Overclocked Kernels for UD (DO NOT USE UNLESS U KNOW WHAT U ARE DOING)

releases by Sauron are always filed at his server

releases by Sibere are always linked in his Signature

Gingerbread (2.3 ...)

openAOS Android Anoa (CM 7) - version 18.08.2011 (homepage, download, bugs)

openAOS Bull RC2

Honeycomb (3.0 ...)

we will never see - due to missing sources

ICS (4.0 ...)

ICS for Gen8 (wip, to be released)

...

other Linux:

Linux Angström

Archos SDE, version ?

Kubuntu

Kubuntu Mobile for GEN 8 Tablets, Pre-alpha Test release

Kubuntu (KDE Plasma Active) how to build

Ubuntu

Bbodhilinux (Ubuntu based with Enlightenment), version Alpha 1 (development stopped as it seems)

Ubuntu install guide

Meego

noting yet, really like too see :D

Debian

Debian-Archos (XFCE4 Alpha 0.3, Gnome Beta 2,...)

If u now ask - how to use them - here is the answer:

OpenAOS Multiboot

UrukDroid AlternativeOS (UD >= v1.1 needed)

or just installthe SDE and replace the rootfs.img file on the device with your deserved one (maby wont work for all OSes)

PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS FOR QUESTIONS ABOUT OSes OR FOR BUGS,... this is just for gathering information about available OSes.

Thanks

As I can't search for all those on myself I'll be happy to get some help:

love to see post like "UD 1.5B4 is out -> LINK" :D

and please correct me if im wrong with information provided...

Last but not least THANKS to all DEVs like Sauron, Bubu, letama, Sibere... :D

last changes:

- bug fixes

- Ubuntu install guide

UrukDroid 1.6RC4 (based on FW 2.4.65, Android 2.2.1) ?

i cant fine main topic about this rom. is it stable or beta release ?

UrukDroid 1.5 is install on my tablet
[Gen8 Android Development] fzelle:
1. As the RC4 is in the developer thread, it can't be a mainrealese.

2. RC4 also implies that it's not release.

3. It is based on 2.4.80.

4. This is the developer part, so you can't expect anything here is released.
[Gen8 Android Development] $aur0n:
Hi,

Could you please change links for UrukDroid. Some people use installation files without even reading a bit of documentation and this makes a lot of questions later.

Please point download files to proper download file section of UD wiki

http://code.google.com/p/urukdroid/wiki/Download

and changelogs, to changelog page

Are any of these firmware versions suitable for an Archos 70 Internet Tablet HDD version? (originally a 250Gb model, upgraded to 1Tb) - model A70H according to the recovery screen.

I'm trying to repair this, as it won't boot, but the firmware on the Archos site won't install.

As the A70H is a Gen8 Device they basicly should work.

This thread is only for discussing that there are diffent OS'es.

Ever discussion about them, esp things not working have to go into the thread about the ROM itself.

Question on avail os's

OK. since this is a gen-8 discussion about WHAT os's will work...

would you (moderator) consider this os version (CYANOBIZ - BASED ON GEN9 KERNEL 2.6.37 - A43-A101-A70S2Froyo-HoneyComb)

as currently NOT a candidate, as it is still in progress?

and since I went to page 30 of 30, I would also presume that that version is close to dead.

Is there anyone who can suggest WHICH kernel I should use?

Linux does't scare me at all. Especially after 30 yrs of UNIX.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pelly_jelly:
hi there.

I'm running my x10 with 2.2 freexperia, baseband 54 (dunno why but with any higher baseband i notice huge battery drain, but it's not the problem, i could change bb) and kernel 14072011.

Problem is: i want to try WB 2.3 gingerbread, but i noticed that the kernel it comes with doesn't have overclock.

Now i might sound completely stupid but since i've popped up the new kernel with overclock, i'm running my snes, gba and whaterver emulators (yeah my life kinda depends on that, i'm a nostalgic hardcore gamer!) at almost full speed and i love it.

Question is: Can i install WB 2.3 and keep my old kernel? Or, if someone's using those emulators, the full package of WB rom (lncluding his kernel) is fast enough to allow me to run those emulators at full speed?
[Thrive General] Hitch_Itch:
I really hope now that XDA has recognized the Thrive, we can get some dev's to develop some sweet custom roms.

I think some sort of sense based rom would be crazy sweet.

Has anyone heard any tid bits about custom roms in the works?

Hitch
[Thrive General] dalepl:
At present, I do not know of any devs working on any custom ROMs. They are still trying to iron out the rooting of the device. Trying to make it easier for all of you.
[Thrive General] Hitch_Itch:
I'm glad they are at least working on a stable rooting process.

I have no problem waiting as long as i know the dev's are working on it.

I just wanted to make sure this tablet wasn't dead from a mod standpoint.

Thanks

Kind of looks like this forum is dead for Thrive. I don't know why the Samsung Galaxy Tab is getting all the love... From what I can tell the Thrive is equal or better on everything except thickness and weight.
[Thrive General] Hitch_Itch:
Yea I dont get it either, I had the Samsung and returned it for this tab,

The only thing has over the Thrive other then weight is they Advertise the crap out of it so everyone knows about it. And all the stores that sell the Samsung they have it display on a huge end cap with banners and such, you cant miss it, but the Thrive sits buried in the back with the xoom, acer, asus.

Toshiba needs to learn how to promote the nice stuff they make

Could not agree more. This tablet beats Samsung's in most specs, except for thickness. I am planning on going for this one.

I still come here because I do not want any thrive users get left out. If XDA does not kick me off, I will continue to come here and help people. I will also let them know there are other resourses available to them. XDA did not want me to post links, so I will abide to thier rules and not do so, but I will still tell people where they can get help if they require it.

I am glad of that and as a Thrive owner I keep an eye on this forum so I will try not tio piss off the mod Gods and send anyone your way that needs help or contact you to come here an lend your capable assistance. BTW thanks for the Eay Root for our thrives. :-)

[Thrive General] Hitch_Itch:
now Toshiba announced they are coming out with a new tablet very soon.

I think Us thrive owners are screwed
[Thrive General] eksasol:
No we aren't screwed. I first had an Asus Transformer, I like it so much that I bought its keyboard dock. It haven't arrived yet and even with knowledge of the new AT200, I found out about the Thrive and went and got it, going to return the Asus.

Point here is the AT100 offer practical features consumer wants. The AT200 lacks some of that. I bet the Asus Slider will be hot (it'll have full USB I think), but I can't wait till end of year.

Real concern is will Toshiba support and update their device softwares. 3.2 will atleast fix a few issues.
[Thrive General] Hitch_Itch:
thats what im afraid of
[Thrive General] dalepl:
I do not think you need to worry about updates and upgrades. Toshiba concentraited on correcting the SOD and reboot issue. They have stated this has put them behind on the release of HC 3.2. I like the fact Toshiba worked on an issue that may have been transfered over to HC 3.2 and then all of you would be crying about the fact they did not fix the issue in the first place. OS development is no easy task and takes a lot of people to accomplish. Be patient. I think you will be rewarded.
[Thrive General] wrek:
Seriously? Don't tell anyone about other websites? That's silly. The forum rules that have been cropping up here lately will destroy this site.
